Action Items
Notes: Members Attendance Policy
This is our second meeting and we have two members we have not heard from. We have used the email addresses provided the Frederick Wilson Benteen Elementary School (FWBES) GO Team. None of the emails have bounced back. According to Section 2.6 of the GO TEAM HANDBOOK, “Performance of Duties,” says that members cannot miss three consecutive meetings or 75% of their term. If Ellis and/or Tyler miss the next meetings they will be excused from the FWBES GO Team.

Information Items
Notes: Strategic Planning
Dr. Lovett provided the strategic plan for FWBES. The plan is basically the goals of our school. He reviewed our vision and mission statements. The wording comes from the vision and mission statements of the Jackson Cluster and the district. There are plans to complete and application to become an International Baccalaureate Elementary School. Every last Friday, FWBES recognizes its parents. School website has been updated, we have a Facebook account, and every department has a Twitter account. Our new motto is B3: Believe in Benteen’s Brillance. Next month the district will release the 2016 CCRPI scores. Motion to accept the Strategic Plan, and to use them to govern the FWBES GO Team was seconded and approved.
